Nixdorf supports character-oriented data processing (DAP) terminals,<br />

the personal computer, and the Professional Workstation (PWS). Both PCs<br />

and PWS systems function either as standalone workstations or as<br />

intelligent workstations to most Nixdorf systems. Through a set of soft<br />

keys, the unintelligent DAP 4 terminals offer a user interface similar to<br />

the PWS systems.<br />

The Nixdorf 8810 Personal Computer Product Family<br />

Nixdorf models 8810 M 25 and 8810 M 35 IBM compatibles can function<br />

as standalone personal computers or they can be attached to other Nixdorf<br />

products as workstations. All personal computer models support standard<br />

industry software, including the Window Manager from Microsoft and GSX<br />

graphics. The 8810/55 is an AT compatible with specific Nixdorf<br />

enhancements that is likely to function as Nixdorf's primary desktop<br />

publishing system using Page software from Island Graphics.<br />
